  • Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a substantial contributor to morbidity and mortality. In search of a natural products capable of inhibiting this multidrug resistant bacteria, we have investigated the antimicrobial activity of brazilein (BRZ) isolated from Caesalpinia sappan L. (Leguminosae) against 8 different strains of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). New antimicrobial activity was found using the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), broth dilution as well as checkerboard method. Against the 8 strains, the minimum inhibitory concentrations of BRZ were in the range of $62.5-500{\mu}g/mL$. From those results we performed the checkerboard test to determine the synergism of BRZ in combination with Hygromycin-b (HgB) against 4 strains. The combined activity of BRZ and HgB against 4 strains resulted in a fractional inhibitory concentrations index (FICI) ranging from 0.18-0.5. The effect of BRZ with HgB was found to be synergistic. We found that BRZ reduced the MICs of HgB. BRZ and HgB could lead to the development of new combination antibiotics against MRSA infection.

  • Self-sufficiency ratio of food crops in Korea is estimated under $20{\%}$ in 2010 because total food consumption including feed will be increased. but food grain production will be decreased. It is necessary to maintain the optimum level of food self-sufficiency rate to secure national food demand/supply balance and non-trade and multiple function of agriculture in Korea. It will be possible to produce more food grains having the acceptable quality if the appropriate policy and cropping techniques are developed and practised in future. Breeding for high yielding varieties should be the first target to raise the production potential of food crops . Number of varieties developed during last 30 years is counted as 353 in food crops. New varieties developed in 1990s showed the higher yield potential and the improved agronomic characteristics compared with 1970s and 1980s varieties. But number of varieties planted on the farmer's field over $5{\%}$ of national planting area is less than one third of total varieties developed Breeding efforts to maintain planting area of main food crops should be focussed on consumer's demand and farmer's need. They are the best quality variety in each field of crop utilization, the newly designed variety adapting to changes of natural, rural and cropping environment, and the higher yielding variety. It is also needed to develop new quality crop varieties for inducing more consumption of crop grain produced in Korea for direct food or processing. Development of barley varieties for animal feed. high income soybean varieties, high quality wheat variety. and super yielding rice and barley varieties are also needed to keep or maximize national food production potential. In order to establish the appropriate cropping technique for domestic food security, the strong and continuous interest and financial support on crop breeding are required, and the inter-disciplinary and inter-institutionary researches should be strengthened for successful crop breeding.

  • 유아용 파우더는 유아의 기저귀 발진을 방지하거나 기타 다른 화장용 파우더의 원료로 사용되고 있고 그 주성분은 일반적으로 광물질인 탈크 분말이 주로 이용되고 있다. 탈크 분말은 사용에 있어 호흡기로 흡입하게 되면 심각한 폐 손상 등을 야기하여 위험하다고 알려져 있다. 쌀 분말을 이용한 유아용 파우더를 개발하기 위하여 3종류의 쌀 품종이 사용되었고, 곱게 분쇄하였다. 최적의 유아용 파우더를 얻기 위해 몇 단계의 분쇄과정을 거쳤고, 파우더에 대한 오일과 실리콘 코팅 처리 전후의 파우더 입자크기, 생리활성, 색차, 수분 흡수율 등의 파우더 특성을 검정하였다. 분말의 색택과 입자 크기 등의 특성에서 고아미 품종의 파우더가 우수한 특성을 보였고, 전자현미경 관찰결과 오일과 실리콘 오일 코팅한 쌀 파우더가 탈크에 비해 둥글고 부드러운 모양을 나타내었다. 또한 오일과 실리콘 코팅에 의해 평균 입자크기가 줄어드는 현상을 나타내었으며 쌀 분말의 단점인 수분흡수를 차단하여 파우더로서 우수한 특성을 유지함을 보였다.

  • "Doha" is a new strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) variety, which was released by the Highland Agriculture Research Institute in 2021. The "Doha" variety originates from a 2014 cross between "Saebong No. 3" and "Yeolha," both of which exhibited excellent ever-bearing characteristics, including continuous flowering and large fruits under long-day and high temperature conditions. This new cultivar was initially named "Saebong No. 13" after examining its characteristics and productivity during summer cultivation between 2015 and 2018. After regional adaptability tests, "Doha" was selected from "Saebong No. 13" as an elite cultivar. The general characteristics of "Doha" include spreading, elliptic leaves, and strong growth. The fruits are long and conical and of a red color. The plant height of "Doha" was similar to that of "Goha," but the number of leaves was lower. The number of flower clusters of "Doha" was 8.6, which was 2.8 fewer than that of the control variety, "Goha," with 11.4. The average fruit weight of "Doha" was 13.9 g, which was 4.9 g heavier than that of "Goha." The fruit hardness of "Doha" was 35.5 g·mm-2, which was 9.4 g·mm-2 harder than that of "Goha." The marketable yield of "Doha" was 26,971 kg·ha-1, 125% more than that of "Goha" with 21,479 kg·ha-1. The findings of this study suggest that "Doha" is a hard fruit and high-yielding variety of ever-bearing strawberries that could increase farming income when distributing to farmers.

  • Phytophthora root and stem rot (PRR), caused by Phytophthora sojae, can occur at any growth stage under poorly drained and humid conditions. The expansion of soybean cultivation in South Korean paddy fields has increased the frequency of PRR outbreaks. This study aimed to identify four P. sojae isolates newly collected from domestic fields and evaluate race-specific resistance using the hypocotyl inoculation technique. The four isolates exhibited various pathotypes, with GJ3053 exhibiting the highest virulence complexity. Two isolates, GJ3053 and AD3617, were screened from 205 soybeans, and 182 and 190 genotypes (88.8 and 92.7%, respectively) were susceptible to each isolate. Among these accessions, five genotypes resistant to both isolates were selected. These promising genotypes are candidates for the development of resistant soybean cultivars that can effectively control PRR through gene stacking.

  • For waxy corn hybrid development, 23 waxy corn hybrids were planted and surveyed in both pericarp thickness and sugar content. Pericarp thickness showed average 50 to $49{\mu}m$ in field and greenhouse. Results like these advanced than previous other hybrids. Also, sugar content in developed waxy corn evaluated as 13.6 to 15.3 brix. Here, we concluded that edible quality of waxy corn depended on combing of two factors. Especially, CNU11H8 hybrid at field and CNU11H-38 at greenhouse were good in both factors. Accordingly, these hybrids will be planted in next time for productivity and area adaptation.

  • As with any crop. There are many things that need to be done to achieve success. IT must be emphasized that this is one crop that demands 100percent or more. This is a high input crop, a long tern crop, a labor intensive crop and a high return crop. However, to get the returns you cannot take shortcuts or go half way. It is essential that you do your homework before you commence this venture. This factsheet is designed to cover the basic steps involved in growing ginseng and some of the details. It does not contain all the bits and pieces of information needed. Many of these are practical, many are solved 'on the farm' and many necessary items can be purchased at the local hardware store. We suggest you do not venture into this crop until you have done your homework. At this time. we do not pretend to have all the answers and this publication serves only as a guideline. We wish you sell in this new agricultural industry in B.C.

  • 전국 차나무 자생지에서 차나무를 수집하여 조성된 클론보존원의 630클론 중 생육이 왕성하고 내한성이 높은 차나무 31계통을 선발하였다. 선발된 31계통 중 최종적으로 3계통을 선발하여 2006년부터 2008년까지 전국 6개 지역에서 지역적응성 및 영양계 비교시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 내한성이면서 다수성을 가진 영양계 차나무 "한광"을 최종 선발하였다. "한광"은 생육이 왕성하여 새싹수는 대비품종인 야부기다에 비하여 27.6% 많았고 백아중은 47.9 g으로 대비품종보다 99.6% 무거웠다. 수량도 대비품종보다 152% 증수된 182 kg/10a으로 초다수성이었다. 또한 "한광"은 내한성이 매우 우수하여 겨울철에 적고현상 발생이 적고 탄저병에도 매우 강하게 나타났다. 탄닌, 카테킨, 총질소, 카테킨 등의 기능성분 함량도 비교적 높게 나타났다. "한광"의 아미노산 함량은 2,567 mg%로 대비품종보다 112.7% 높았다.
